  I was at a neighborhood Italian restaurant with limited choices, so I tried this wine. The color and nose were good, but on the palate the wine was rather tart, short and harsh. First unimpressive 2006 Brunello I have had.

  Agree with previous comments. This is a good everyday drinker. A bit flat on the tail end.

  Brunello di Montalcino: Tipico selvatico da sangiovese, china, catrame vegetale, combustione, balsamico, boschivo, caffè tostato, ruggine, bocca molto sull'acidità del frutto decisa, maracante e perfettamente integrata al resto. Lungo, ben delineato anche il tannino.

  I have never had a Brunello that was awful but this one came close. On the nose was fruit cake,spice, and raisin. So far so good but on the palate very disappointing. It was sour cherry but not in a good way. I didn't think a 2006 would disappoint but this one did. I still have the 2006 Fattoi Reserva, I hope that one makes up for this one....

  Drank from a 375 at a local trattoria. Nothing special about this bottling, but it did the job. Paired well with cavatelli bolognese and veal medallions.
